Team 8626 - CYBER SAILORS

ONLINE STORE
A robot with the number 8626 on its side is participating in a robotics competition, moving across a marked competition floor. The robot is built with various mechanical and electronic components, including a white structure, wiring, and sensors. In the background, a clear barrier separates the competition area from the spectators and team members.

Scituate High School‘s FIRST Robotics team was founded in 2020.

Team 8626 – Cyber Sailors competed so far in 4 seasons. The team is now prepping for the off season and get ready for the 2025-2026 competition season!

All Scituate High School students, regardless of robotics knowledge, are welcome to join the team! Mentors (contact us to volunteer) will point you in the right direction to learn, build, gain confidence and achieve!

This team requires a variety of skills to be successful, both technical and non-technical. Of course, engineering and computer coding are key to get the robot ready to compete. Also crucial are business and creative minded students to keep the project on track, organize event travel, market and promote our brand, support fundraising goals, as well as manage our image, website and social media. All team roles are important!

Thank you to our committed students, community volunteers, school administration and staff for supporting our extracurricular STEM team! If you would like to support the team, we welcome sponsors, donations, and volunteers mentors!
